‘Tank Farm’
Wynyard Quarter, Auckland
Oil on Canvas | 350 x 250mm
The final piece in the Look Up series, Tank Farm captures the bold silhouette of an industrial structure in Wynyard Quarter. Painted from a low vantage point, the composition highlights the tangle of steel piping, concrete forms, and the softened edges of age and wear. Set against a muted sky, the work reflects on the presence found in utilitarian architecture - structures often overlooked yet rich with texture and weight. With a focus on contrast and quiet geometry, this painting speaks to the stillness hidden in the built environment and the subtle tension between form, shadow, and time.
